4 x strawberries, halved
2 x yellow plums, stones removed and cut into eighths
2 x red plums, stones removed and cut into eighths

1/2 pink grapefruit, segmented and any juice reserved
1/2 orange, segmented
1/2 melon

1 x vanilla pod
6 x tbsp sugar
55 ml water
1 x grapefruit juice

· To Assemble
1/4 bottle Prosecco wine, chilled

· Directions:
To Assemble
Remove the vanilla seeds from the pod and put seeds and pod into a small pan. Add the water and sugar boil to make a syrup and add any grapefruit juice. Put in the fridge until thoroughly chilled.
Toss the prepared fruit in the chilled syrup. Spoon on to plates and pour over the chilled Prosecco. Serve with crème fraiche.
